Hi Guys I am trying to get Drupal installed at work and would really appreciate your input into the follow requirments assessment. I am sure Drupal would be able to offer most if not all of the requirments but any help would be appreciated.

Apologies for the format, I can email an Excel file if it is easier?

Cheers

Jason

I think all of the function

I think all of the function are available over drupal and modules. You list a lot of funktions, but I can not figure your goal. An integrated business webiste with Intranet and etxranet?

It's me, BENNOS.

...

Most of these should be OK, with the right contributed modules and for some functions (like the workflow stuff) quite a lot of work configuring/setting things up. There are some that I can't remember seeing a solution for. This doesn't mean that they aren't possible, but you might have to do (or pay for) custom coding to get it done.

- "Rich text editor (RTE) option for IE and Firefox" and "Enforceable text styles": Either of these are fine by themselves, but there may be a problem combining them. What I've seen of enforcable text styes are based on markup.

- Spell checking (English) - haven't seen this.

- Advanced table management - not sure what this means

- Versioned site rollback - the core versioning is per page. The closest I've seen to site rollback is http://drupal.org/project/demo, might be adaptable for your needs

- Automated link and integrity checking - not sure what "integrity checking" means.

- Site publishing change report - not sure what this one means either

- Static HTML export - of the complete site? I've seen external tools recommended for this, haven't heard of any Drupal modules

- Client side system template creation - not sure what this one means
